Hitachi has selected the media processing and wireless applications provider, Octasico’s Vocallo Media Gateway (MGW) multi-core DSP platform to use in its hybrid IP-PBX NETTOWER CX-01 for voice media processing in VoIP.

Vocallo MGW will enable Hitachi to build the NETTOWER CX-01 to provide enterprise customers the option to combine both corporate data networks and TDM voice networks.

Octasic also provides the complete software for its processor and acts as a single source vendor to Hitachi. Hitachi customers will also benefit from the echo cancellation and voice quality enhancement technology.

The NETTOWER CX-01 offers an IP-PBX that meets current enterprise requirements in reliability and flexible scalability. Support for Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) features and smartphones enables the NETTOWER CX-01 to provide mobile phone users added convenience in their day-to-day work.

The Vocallo MGW software package includes voice processing with support for a wide range of wideband codecs such as AMR-WB (G.722.2), G.722, G.722.1, G.729.1, and SILK.

Octasic Marketing director James Awad said, "Octasic’s Vocallo MGW platform provides both the highest voice quality and video capabilities within a single DSP."
